“WHAT IS TO GIVE LIGHT, MUST ENDURE BURNING” — Viktor Frankl
My loves! Quite a legendary week we have ahead of us. One of the most astrologically potent moments of 2025; Saturn’s ingress into ARIES! On Saturday, May 24th! The Wise Elder will join the inspired Mystic (Neptune) here, deepening the process of actualizing our dreams into tangible reality. A reality check, indeed.
Since March of 2023, Saturn has been traversing the territory of Pisces. Think back to that time and consider what shifted for you back then. Saturn’s presence often makes itself distinctly known, as it deals with the very tangible reality of our material world.
Saturn reminds us; WE LIVE IN TIME, thus we must honor it’s limitations. This aging body, our dreams made manifest in tangible reality; all of it requires dedication, discipline, and sacrifice. We do not only live in realms of vision + dream; in order for those insights to do something in the world they must also exist in time + tangibility.
That is where Saturn’s teachings come in; the elder wants to help us make something REAL. To learn the limitations of temporal reality, so we can learn how to best function within them. We are learning how to keep a good flame, as my Grandmothers say.
Aries, on the other hand, functions in the realm of instinct + impulse. For Aries, life is happening in the immediacy of the present; action is happening NOW. There is not so much worry about the weight of the past, or consequences of the future. This is a gift, but one that must inevitably be honed if we desire to live beyond the urgency of instant gratification.
We must learn to live in time, to honor the slowness required to build something that can live beyond just this present moment. This, I hope, is what Saturn in Aries will teach us how to do. To TEMPER our impulses with discipline, to hone our creative output at a sustainable pace. The sweetnesss of delayed gratification. To consider not only what we dream of NOW, but what will also serve the generations to come. The Legacy of our Impact is just as important as our desires for our current circumstances.
All of this, as the Sun also enters Gemini this Tuesday. This is the realm of Air + Fire. We are learning how to keep a good flame.
Later this week, I will share more in-depth interpretations for Saturn’s ingress into Aries, for paid subscribers here on Substack. THANK YOU for your support!! xx T
